[WHACK-A-MOLE UPDATE 10-6]: I’m glad Julie has made this her mission. The below example from yesterday was quickly fixed, but sure enough she found another one. Clearly there was no comprehensive review done, they’re just counting on using Reason and Brimstone to find any and all lifted passages, I suppose. They should pay her a fee for the service. Here’s the latest from R&B:
We need maximum transparency for government. There should be no secrets unless it involves critical aspects of National Security. Every earmark, every grant, every contract should be online so the public can get access to it
If it sounds familiar, it’s because it’s the exact same passage, unchanged, that I found on Sunday night that was stolen from the PBS show NOW.
How to get in front of it this time, I wonder? They can’t fire the same staffer again… -odum]
It’s hard to believe, but the “new improved” Rainville website still has some of the plagiarized material. This is the latest from Julie Waters’ blog:
Okay, so Martha’s site is now back up again, and she’s fixed all the stolen language problems, right?
Not so much as you might think:

I also support making health insurance portable. Too often when people switch jobs their health insurance isn’t portable, forcing them to change doctors and coverage or lose it entirely.http://www.rickodonn…
People switch jobs but their health insurance isn’t portable, forcing them to change doctors and coverage or lose it entirely.As with before, I kept a copy of the site
Isolated incident, eh? -chuckle- Too funny…
